Is the Coop report a strict 10 pages? I have 10 content pages in there but there's 2 company logos within to take up space

No.

I used two huge f*ck off charts in mine.

Literally no one gives a toss about the report, just make it semi-decent and submit it. Be grand.

Decent, been stuck on 9 pages for awhie and just wanted it done. Cheers!

Have you attached the pre and post co-op evaluation yokes? They count as pages too. :P

Friend of mine handed it in with only 9 pages, they gave it back to him and told him it needed to be 10. So he went off and broke up paragraphs into smaller ones which added more lines, and tabbed all the paragraphs too. The report ended up being 9 full pages and the tenth page had maybe 8 or 9 lines on it, and it was accepted.

Timetables are up ^.^

Depending on what the tutorial is for you can probably switch groups. I have a five day weekend, whooooo! I have two hours on a Tuesday, two on a Weds and then FYP day is Friday. That all only lasts till week 3, and then week 4 sees the start of teaching practice where the REAL fun begins. Whoo

If you click on the module code on tt.daniel.ie you can see all the other slots, you may be able to shneak into an earlier tutorial.

When I looked at the UL timetable page, I was wondering what was going on with my Wednesday:
9.30-12.30, 13.30 to 17.30, all the one module.
What craziness is this!!!

Then it hit me: FYP

Doesn't show up on tt.daniel.ie though.

You guys get a timetabled day for FYP? We get 1 hour a week on the timetable for it...

Jesus my timetable is disgusting. :L

Nah I thought of that already... All three of the slots are on a Friday... Mines the morning which is better than the other two I think. Thanks though!

Yep. Wednesday is a full day for FYP's. Some people get FYP's from outside companies, and can give the full day out at the companies site. One particular company offered something like 10 or 15 FYPs to us.

I've a timetabled day too. Makes a lot of sense for me though since my FYP is in science and I'll need access to the labs and have to wait for results and such. An hour to set up an experiment and carry it out definitely isnt long enough :P

Definitely not... but there were many times I wished it was...

Is it too early to email lectures about switching labs or should I wait until we get back in September?

Midkemia

Absolutely horrendous timetable ! One day is 9-10 and then 4-6 and I start at 9am every day :P

RianF2

9am on Fridays is going to be the death of me. Most days end at 6 for me. The bad thing is all the free time between stuff. I'd rather blocks of stuff together. Maybe I can change some stuff around :P

You're probably better off waiting. They probably won't reply until much closer anyways. Plus, a lot of labs don't start the first week either

Ah, I forgot to pay off my library loan by the 7th of August deadline for graduation, am I fooked? Or can I go in tomorrow and explain that I'm a forgetful idiot?

Question about paying fees, guys! I know I'll get some form of an answer faster here :P

I'm paying my fees by cheque, will I get a receipt in the mail or do I need to request one?

ALSO

Are there any forms I need to hand in once my fees are paid? I know for enrolment they need some form of a receipt, would a photocopy of the cheque do?

I've never had to do this before and it's leaving me flustered!

Barriers going up in some parking sections behind CSIS. Looks like some of that will no longer be free parking :eek:

Apparently its all going to become paid, so €3 a day for the Foundation Carpark now. I'm not sure if it was a paid carpark already, but the one beside the Arena looks as if its getting ready for barriers

Ugghhhh don't want to travel the whole 7 hour (or 8, depending) bus journey for graduation...

I was looking forward to my undergrad one last year, but I don't want to go to my post grad one at all this year. It's the same ceremony and the same thing, and I've to rent the stupid robes again :mad: I'm only going because I made a deal with my family that I'd go if I got certain grades. But, you know, the dinner after with the family is always good :P
